Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given the reference string '1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4', simulate the page faults for FIFO and Clock algorithms with 3 frames.

💡 Hint: Simulate step-by-step filling and replacing pages based on the rules.

Challenge 2 Hard

Investigate an alternative page replacement strategy not covered in class and compare it to FIFO and Clock. What are the pros and cons?

💡 Hint: Look for academic papers or articles discussing LFU.
